Red, red is the color of my hunger,
like the blood that flows from the cut
on my left ring finger. Like the rose that
withered on                  my front door step.
Like the color               of my cheeks or
the echoing of a bruise. Your hunger
is a darkness that is simply
nothing, like            a black hole of
constantly               collapsing stars
that shine                  like an angler fish’s
allure. Like                a deep, deep green
that feeds                   upon the beautiful.
Like a hypnotic            blue that envelopes
you in a trance              of one thousand pounds.

How often do you check the time

How many times do you hesitate, not to be late.

How often do you feel limited by the unlimited.

So don't try to catch time.
Let time catch you.

Today I climbed a mountain so high.
So high that I started feeling pain in my thigh.
So high hoping to touch the sky.
But still! I could hear, the women and children cry!
So high looking in the view of a birds’ eye.
But still! I could see the babies die!
And a man buying a million dollar tie!
So high feeling that I could fly.
Above the rich man, that told that lie.
As I reached the top I prayed to god to show me why.
I really climbed a mountain today before I wrote this poem.

Happiness is an internal sensation.
Not caused by an external temptation.

Happiness is a psychological reaction,
That follows complete satisfaction.

Happiness comes when escaping worldly pleasures,
And when anticipating heavenly treasures.

Happiness can't be bought with money or wealth.
It is achieved when one frees himself.
I wish you all are happy

Can you see that soldier wearing white.
Marching peacefully in the night.

He made a promise not to fight.
Until he realizes what is right.

Can you see the killers monstrous size.
Too bad he's lead by two blinded eyes.

He is fed by a spoon of countless lies.
Full of arrogance, unable to realize.

And the young child hanging on an endless pole.
Afraid of falling into a black hole.

And the woman searching through her soul.
Desperately trying to find her role.

Open your eyes to see the light
It's a shame to think, whats wrong is right.
Put in mind that every night ends with light.

I'll play a game
I'll smoke a cigarette
I'll read a book
I'll watch some tv
I'll write a poem
I'll play some guitar
I'll go for a walk
I'll pass the time
I'll do it by myself
